AFTER a 50k markup for the Demon was paid for, on top of the MSRP, the dealership had to make fast decisions when jammed up promises to buyers wanting to blow fortunes for a Demon.
So they shorted the active duty deployed guy who had ordered, and paid, and handed the keys to a local who paid MORE of a markup.
A deal was struck, and the happy new owner went to Facebook to share their excitement for their new purchase. However, the servicemember who originally ordered the car was in the group where this boast was shared, and the two quickly figured out what had happened.
the dealership general manager denyied many of these allegations, claimed no such car was ever ordered in the servicemember's name, and accused him of lying about being in the military.
at some point, the news made its way to Dodge CEO Tim Kuniskis, whom StellPower reports reached out to both parties for their versions of the story.
Still, this story has a happy ending, because Dodge has a dealership reward program, and 40 Demon 170s to reward its top selling dealers with, so it plucked one from the batch, will get it repainted and built to match the original spec the servicemember ordered.the dealership general manager denyied many of these allegations, claimed no such car was ever ordered in the servicemember's name, and accused him of lying about being in the military.

His payment of the markup has been revoked, and cancelled. He got that back.
This will all be done at no charge, and the car will be sold at MSRP. No markup.
On top of that, Jay Leno will handle the delivery ceremony at his garage.
YAAY - A happy ending for the man who ordered the car.
